  1. Service return advice

    Always get to the ball early, even for long serves. Even a poor return if you play the ball quickly will give less time to the opponent

  4. Hong Kong Open 2018

    LOL I loved to see LSW lose, or rather i'm a JNT fan, and ITO's win was fantastic, but LSW won so many times, she lost just one match and by the smallest of margins. She's really a top class player. Too bad for her DING Ning and LI Xiaoxia were too good for her in the big events.

    it all started with Ai-chan... she's not there anymore, but thanks to her, we've got a new generation of cute champions !
  9. World Team Table Tennis Championships 2018

    I had a chat with my Japanese coach (ex JNT member) about the competition He said he was disappointed that Japan had no strong third player. Niwa is too unstable and Matsudaira ‘s level has been going down and not good enough. He said that he would have preferred Niwa instead of Matsudaira...

    so i went alone this time to the TT facility. I first found an old lady whos a good sparring partner to me but she got tired quickly. Fortunately she kindly asked for a young guy alone (in a group of 3) to play with me, and he couldn't say no... The guy was quite good, better than me. We...

    Unfortunately it's very likely he's only going to be a shadow of his former self. It's a goodbye tour for him

    Franziska might win one set. lets see... I think the Koreans would have taken a few sets. Japan as well
  15. Harimoto team, watch out for destructive enthusiasm

    I am calling you because you are creating a new thread on Harimoto while they are plenty, to make an unsubstantiated post [= giving no arguments]. Nobody cares about your provocative post, and you needed to answer to you own post to make it more provocative Harimoto has made tremendous progress...
  16. So bad lose against a veteran player (Match Video) What should I improve?

    Alpay, as everybody noticed already, your serves are way too weak, they are too easy to attack, no spin, too high, not short enough or not long enough, its like a penalty kick. If you're not good at serving, just focus on keeping at least the ball LOW and try to serve SHORT. to keep the ball...
  17. Harimoto team, watch out for destructive enthusiasm

    stupid comment. Harimoto played very well against Jeoung. Until he choked. He had too much pressure. Skill-wise or tactics-wise he has been excellent.

  19. Harimoto defeats Fan Zhendong | Asian Cup 2018

    Ishikawa can beat almost anyone but the top Chinese players indeed her track record is terrible against Ding Ning, Liu Shiwen, Li Xiaoxia, Zhu Yuling or Chen Meng, - we can add also a few other older players to that list. I believe what she lacks most is 1) power. we can see a few times she has...
  20. World Team Table Tennis Championships 2018

    Hirano changed her ball placement in the 3rd. Put more often the ball in the middle before going in the BH diagonal. It almost paid off. I think she should use more tactics from the start
